About Alaska: It's far more likely for the Bounty Hunter Guild Core to have been given access to the Omicrons via Alaska. Infocards suggest their capital ships were developed on Liberty shipyards, the BHG has a strong (in canon RP) relationship with Liberty, and the Liberty forces have had Nomad/Order trouble in Alaska's northern section.
Of course, this differs completely to the Liberty faction's current RP, but it's up to Igiss to decide what role bounty hunters have in Alaska.
Plus, people, it's silly to say "battleships are useless for hunting bounties, so the BHG shouldn't have them". The Guild Core, not Hunters, operate the capital ships. The Guild Core is a naval/research organisation, not the same as their scruffier Guild counterparts. It's like saying "You can't mine well in a battlecruiser, so why do the IMG have one?". The BHG is a large organisation, with different sections (Hunters and the Core are the two canon ones).
